Judgement day…

It’s been a healthy last couple of weeks.
I attended a “Patient Harm Conference” last week (provocative title, eh?) – organised by Tricordant, for the NHS and a number of health-related organisations all focused on improving patient safety. I had the privilege of hearing leadership speaker Alistair Mant discuss complex systems (using frogs and bicycles) the subject of Judgement (not in the biblical sense – that’s another story!)

Alistair came out with a couple of quotes which made me think:

Judgement is what you do when you don’t know (and can’t know) what to do – and you know you need to do something fast!

Good judgement is based on experience;
experience is based on bad judgement…

Clive – sorry you missed out on what was an good day. If you go to our website http://www.tricordant.com there is a link to a brief report, presentations and associated articles from the day. If you want to know anymore then contact Alistair via the website.
